Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for generating a response to a natural language query. Specifically, the natural language query is received and a query template that corresponds to the natural language query is determined. One or more search results corresponding to the natural language query are retrieved. One or more attributes associated with a user are selected based on selection criteria. Based on those attributes, a response template previously assigned to the query template is identified. A response to the natural language query is generated based on the identified response template and the retrieved one or more search results.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for a media guidance application that tailors media content recommendations for downloadable content to the current interests of the users. For example, the media guidance application may determine the current interests of a user based on the media content recently consumed by the friends of the user, and automatically download that media content. In such cases, the media guidance application may monitor social networks of the user for indications of media content that may have been recently consumed by the friends of a user as such media content is likely to be of current interest to the user. In response to detecting media content that was recently consumed by the friend of the user, the media guidance application may automatically download the media content to a device of the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for updating links between keywords associated with a trending topic. Control circuitry may identify a plurality of communications associated with a plurality of users, the plurality of communications being related to a topic. The communications may comprise, for example, emails, text messages, online social media posts, websites or portions of a website, or any other online communication. The control circuitry may determine whether the topic is trending and increase a strength of association between a first symbol associated with the topic and a second symbol associated with the topic such that when a search query is received that includes the first symbol, search results related to the second symbol have a higher probability of being returned.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for controlling mobile devices with user equipment devices. A user equipment device may detect a mobile device is within a predetermined proximity to the user equipment device by establishing a bi-directional communication. The user equipment device may determine an input/output option of the mobile device. The input/output option may be a microphone, a cellular Internet connection, a camera, or any other sensor and/or actuator of the mobile device. The user equipment device may generate for display an icon corresponding to the input/output option of the mobile device.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for responding to natural language queries. Specifically a natural language query is received and a query template that corresponds to the natural language query is determined. One or more search results corresponding to the natural language query are retrieved. One or more attributes associated with the user equipment device are identified and based on those attributes a first response template associated with an audio-only response to the natural language query, a second response template associated with a visual-only response to the natural language query, or a third response template associated with an audio-visual response to the natural language query is selected. A response to the natural language query is generated based on the selected response template and the retrieved one or more search results.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein to recommend media assets to a user based on user location. A media guidance application may identify, using control circuitry, a user location. The media guidance application may generate a list of a plurality of media assets that match a user profile. The media guidance application may determine whether subject matter of a first media asset of the plurality of media assets is inconsistent with the user location. The media guidance application may remove the first media asset from the list in response to determining that the subject matter of the first media asset is inconsistent with the user location.

Abstract: Methods and systems that improve the ability of a media guidance application to aggregate information from one or more sources and one or more mediums. For example, the media guidance application may automatically collect information based on attributes associated with information of a particular type. Specifically, the media guidance application may determine based on comparison with verified training data that one source or medium typically associates information of a particular type, for example, “Actor,” with one or more path attributes, for example, a location in a directory structure. The media guidance application may then search the source or medium for the one or more path attributes. Upon detecting the one or more path attributes, the media guidance application may designate any sub-set of information associated with the one or more path attributes as a particular type of information.
